SO and I have gotten really into homemade bread over the last few months (we''ve been baking 3-6 loaves a week). Does anyone else bake their own bread? I thought it might be fun to compare tips and tricks. We mainly use the NYT No-Knead method and the Cook''s Illustrated Almost No-Knead method, with variations (although we definitely do kneaded bread as well--focacchia, especially).
I''m starting to experiment more with doing whole wheat and rye bread (I have a rye loaf rising right now). I usually bake it in our old school enameled cast iron (looks like it''s from the 60s--white with orange flowers on it
) and the crust comes out delicious! I''d like to start doing more sandwich loaf bread as well.
If anyone already bakes bread or wants to get more into it, this could be fun! Yay for bread!
